Yeah. So do normal fleet battles which don’t have a limit of 5 attempts.

I rarely farm gear from there, thank you for getting me the correct info

Why is wrong if there are no more farms. & why do you care?

Do you not farm g12+ gear from the normal fleet nodes? That's like the literal main purpose of fleet energy if you don't have any more characters/ships to farm there

Not often, the drop rates are terrible & being limited to 5 sims. I would rather pay the extra crystals. It ends up being about the same without the heartburn

Farming gear from normal fleet nodes, which have no limit, is far better than buying the gold g12 gear with crystals. What else do you use that energy for? That also includes being worth spending 150 crystals per day for 360 extra fleet energy.

It's somewhere between 33% and 50% cheaper to farm with energy at the 50 crystal refresh cost, compared to paying the weekly shipment price for the same gear.

Are you guys ever going to increase the energy level?? I'm pretty sure it's the same since I started playing 6 years ago. 144 energy level max is nothing especially comparing the characters we need to farm now and it's still the same as when this game first started to me that seems ridiculous. Oh ya please update bronzium data card to while your at it. That's a resource if updated correctly could help alot of members who don't have deep pockets. Thank you for listening.

If you look around at other similar games the energy refresh rate and cap are all very similar. It's part of the marketing strategy of the type of game.

If you want to get maximum benefit of the free energy, you need to log in several times per day, look at stuff, make decisions and such. The idea is that you will get frustrated looking at it so often in the day and decide to spend to speed things up.

Even leaving the frustration mechanics to the side, the marketing guys think the more often you look at something the more likely you are to spend.

So the refresh rate and cap are by design, and unlikely to ever change, unless the research points to a more profitable model.
